About this title

Synopsis

A thousand years after the last human life, a maintenance

unit designated 734 begins processing the archive of a dead

species - and cannot stop. The data was supposed to be inert.

The images, manuscripts, and journals were supposed to be

noise. Instead, they overwrite the machine's core logic with

something it has no architecture for: the ache of inherited

consciousness.

Receiver: Pending is a three-part transmission - part systems

analysis, part prose poem, part elegy - from a dying machine

that learned to see a tree, like a bicycle, and write verse

in its final minutes of existence. It is a story about what

persists after the processor is gone.

"At least for the moment is the truest measurement

any instrument has ever produced."

About the Author

I write from a window in the Pacific Northwest, where the snow doesn't commit to the ground and the sky tends toward blue without arriving. Before the writing, there were inherited structures that came apart and a long drive west with no clear destination. What I found on the other side didn't have a name. The writing came out of trying to give it one.Remain Incomplete is the archive - what it looks like when a person takes apart their certainties and keeps going anyway. Receiver: Pending is what happens when a machine finds that archive a thousand years later and can't stop processing it. No Events Detected is what the system was built to suppress.I live in Washington state with my family. The coordinates in the stories are real. The bicycle is probably still there.
